When you replace a database, you may also choose to relocate it.

  1. Set replaceDatabase to true, and specify the name of the source database.
  2. Under the target_database element, specify the name of the location where you want to copy the source database.
In the following example, all objects in the MyTargetDB database are eliminated and objects from the source MySourceDB database are copied to the target database MyTargetDB. Thus MyTargetDB is replaced with MySourceDB.
database selection="included" replaceDatabase="true">
     <name>MySourceDB</name>
     <target_database>
           <name>MyTargetDB</name>
     </target_database>
 </database>
